Description of the problem | While backing out of my garage unto the driveway and then into the street, it caused a unintended acceleration while driving in reverse, causing almost a 90 degree spin and i had to slam on the brakes for it to finally stop. This happened once on 4/18/12 and then again the exact same thing happened again on 6/8/2012. The first time it happened i thought it was something i did and then when it happened again i knew that "something was really wrong" and when i realized the danger over that weekend i parked the car in my garage and have not driven it since. Now i am hearing of car door panels catching on fire for 2007-2009 camrys... I will not even drive this car, it will be towed to the dealership this week. I will not be killed or kill someone waiting for something happen. I will never buy another toyota product again. |
